Samhain 2011
Over the weekend I baked a pumpkin spice cake. From scratch. With caramel cream cheese frosting. Also from scratch.
Last night, Sasha took his brothers trick-or-treating, which gave me a couple hours by myself (!). When they got back, we performed the annual Samhain ritual. We lit candles about the house, then brought the Goddess statue inside, cleansed everything, and set up the indoor altar. We also spent considerable time with the Tarot deck. Then we extinguished the lights--the dark time of the year is upon us.
And then it was time for cake. Wonderful, delicious cake!
